I've been recording a lot of footage to try to make a longer video with some nice montages and music and such. I've found that the best software for dayz is nvidia shadowplay, whats good about it is that it mostly uses the gpu so since dayz is cpu intensive it doesn't have much of an impact. ALSO, shadowplay is great in that you can record 30 fps but play at 60, which has always seriously annoyed me about fraps. Since I'm recording at 30fps at 1080, I've been able to record many hours and still have over half of my 1tb media drive left. Make sure you turn off the actual shadow recording, it makes thing jerky, all you need is manual.

I searched and didn't find and ideas like this so here goes. I think it'd be really cool if green mountaint had a radio transmission room that would broadcast to battery powered radios throughout the map. Not the walkie talkies but radios like how a person would normally listen to music or the news. With the things that people dedicate time to in this game I'm sure that some people would actually run full radio shows. If some of the radios were on as an object on the ground it would be really cool too, hearing someone play music or read hamlet over the radio as you enter and abandoned factory would be cool. Thoughts?

I can see how the shitty music/obsenities thing would be an issue but as people have said the radio host would be easily found and also you wouldn't hear it unless you had found an active radio so it would be easily avoided.

Hey man, just to inform you about some things its nice to know when you first start -you spawn in one of several locations, you'll need to determine where you are using a street sign, knowing the map, or asking another player -the map is an item that must be found in game to be visible. -if you check the time of the server before you join you can then use the sun to determine the cardinal directions Hope that helps with navigation!
